President’s comments –
Eventful year as the new stronger ITAB Group takes shape
2025 was a truly eventful year for the ITAB Group, dominated by the acquisition and merger with HMY. Together, we are creating the leading solution provider for retailers with a strong market position. The new Group’s sales and earnings performance was stable during the year, with most of our operations achieving profitability in line with or above set targets. At the same time, it is also encouraging to see our strong cash flow from operating activities of MSEK 785. Pro forma for the combined Group, currency-adjusted sales increased by 5 percent to MSEK 13,270 for 2025. Pro forma adjusted EBIT amounted to MSEK 847, corresponding to an adjusted EBIT margin of 6.4 percent. In conclusion, we have excellent potential to further strengthen our profitability going forward,” concludes Interim President & CEO Glauco Frascaroli.
